It looks close enough to the original to pick up on the right themes... but Keanu seems a little more aloof in this one.

The original needs some reworking to fit it to modern times.

Yah true, adjustements to the current times is okay. But if they're starting to make a sort of alien romance out of it or an action movie, my worst fears. The trailers still looked fine, though.

Instead of a nuclear war message, its giving out an environmental message... I guess that message is, like in the Happening....

DEATH TO HUMANS SO PLANTS MAY RULE!

Looking forward to this.

Keanu is always awesome when all he has to do is look into the camera with a half stoned empty stare and say maybe one word.

Gort looks pretty awesome, though they made him too big.

   Man, how many times has Keanu saved the world, or at least helped usher in an utopian age? O_o

I look forward to see how Neo Keanu R. will play in this movie. Looks awesome so far and maybe they even make a PC game of the movie

Just seen this AND WILL WATCH IT AGAIN...   ... Great Movie and story. 

Although I have no Idea as to what the original 1951 movie was about other than that big robot popping out, this movie pique my interest into saving our environment AND our humanity... which I believe is what they are trying to suggest.

We are just passing through this planet anyways as it was NEVER ours to take.

Sweet!  I'm glad it got the mantra777 Seal of Approval. SMILEY  I've got tickets for 10pm tomorrow night, I'm going with a group of 5-10 other friends. 

 

Can't wait!

It doesn't seem like they are keeping to the original at all. The original with it's premise only worked in it's time, post-WWII, a direct remake with the same premise would fit oddly in our society unless it were made as an emulation of the 1950s, but it isn't. I just hope Keanu has made a good choice - I'm watching this in IMAX.
